In his distinguished legal career, Mr. Lehr has represented the State of California and private individuals in thousands of cases involving Ventura DUIs.

A Highly-Effective and Well-Respected California Prosecutor

As a prosecutor, Mr. Lehr developed adept courtroom skills while handling a substantial case load of DUI charges and other criminal matters.

During his prosecutorial career, Mr. Lehr was responsible for successfully bringing ninety-nine jury trials to verdict, and in 2006 alone, he separately resolved more than 1,000 felony cases without going to trial.

Nearing the end of his time with the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office, Mr. Lehr determined that his skills would be better put to use representing Ventura criminal defendants. Transitioning into private practice as a Ventura DUI attorney, the experience that he gained through his work as a prosecuting attorney provided Mr. Lehr with a unique perspective on the laws and strategies used to bring suspected criminals to justice. Today, Mr. Lehr’s uses this perspective and his honed courtroom, research and negotiation skills help his clients face – and often defeat – Ventura DUI charges. He has helped numerous clients protect their rights and avoid punishment in cases involving illegal arrests, unjustified charges, faulty evidence, and other issues, and has quickly become one of the most well-respected Ventura DUI lawyers and drunk driving lawyers in Southern California.
